I recently worked with a client experiencing chronic joint pain, and she was surprised and somewhat skeptical that making significant changes to her diet and lifestyle could make a difference.

Her goals were to gradually adopt an anti-inflammatory eating pattern, incorporate targeted therapeutic foods, reduce consumption of inflammatory processed foods, and limit alcohol intake. If some weight was lost in the process, that would be even better.

I checked in with her about six weeks after she started making changes, and she was STUNNED to report that her joint pain had significantly improved. And she hadn’t lost any weight yet, so her results were based solely on removing inflammatory foods and drinks and replacing them with nutrient-dense options.

Food is one of our most powerful tools.

This past Saturday I was asked to give an in-home nutrition education class and cooking demonstration for some absolutely cool and beautiful women from the Pathfinders Sunday School class at First United Methodist Chruch in Rockwall. We had so much fun.

Our focus? Delicious, anti-inflammatory eating for healthy aging

What did we make? We made healthy, colorful bowls that included pan-seared salmon, bell peppers (red, orange, and yellow), edamame, arugula, blueberries, pumpkin seeds, whole grain brown rice, and shredded parmesan. And we topped it all off with a homemade lemon dressing. Yes, we ate the rainbow. 😊

I used to cook a whole bunch - like fancy stuff - but these days it’s not a priority. I want simple, healthy, and fast. Tonight Chris and I are having grilled shrimp soft tacos with diced cucumber, onion, spinach, toasted pumpkin seeds, salsa, and lime wedges for drizzling. I even threw in some mangos that were going bad in the fridge. Healthy eating doesn’t have to take huge amounts of time and effort, just a little planning.

In addition to my private practice, I work part-time as a functional nutritionist for a company in DFW that provides alternative solutions for mood disorders. I recorded my FIRST-EVER webinar on Functional Nutrition 101 with our new CEO this morning! This will be uploaded to YouTube as soon as it is ready, and we are planning many more. While I didn’t “suck” at all, I sure was nervous, and it took me a hot little second to find my groove. As my mother-in-law would say, “You just never know where life will take you…”

Check out my new blog post for Radiant Yoga & Fitness of Rockwall. In this article, I address the question of whether or not electrolyte drinks and supplements are needed when we exercise. Feel free to hit me up if you'd like a recommendation on a good, really clean electrolyte formulation. ❤️

Electrolytes are essential minerals that our bodies need in proper amounts to be healthy. They help regulate fluid levels and keep nerves and muscles functioning well. Electrolytes found in the human body include sodium, chloride, potassium, magnesium, calcium, and phosphorus.

Check out my new blog post on the Radiant Yoga & Fitness of Rockwall website! They use far-infrared heat (FIR) in their heated classes. I began to notice that no matter how hard I worked in each class, I wasn't sore. I decided to do some research and figure out how it is working in the human body! Would love to see each of you on the mat at this amazing new studio.

Scientific studies have shown that infrared heat can benefit the body in many ways, including reducing inflammation and improving various medical conditions. This begs the question: How exactly does it work?

What are some confusing nutrition and/or functional medicine topics that you would like to learn more about?

02/09/2024

Hi everyone! Many of you know that I opened my nutrition and functional medicine practice in Rockwall last fall. I see clients in-person and virtually. I am beginning to offer community health and wellness education and will be co-presenting a wellness workshop at Sunstone FIT - Rockwall Village on Saturday, 2/17 from 11:30am to 1:00pm.

The topic will be detoxification, and the fabulous Robin Adams will be leading us in a detox-themed yoga class.

My presentation will cover the following items and answer some very important questions -

* What are some popular detox strategies we have heard about? Which ones really work? Which ones are myths?

* How does the human body actually detox all the things it comes into contact with every day?

* What happens to a pesky toxin after it enters the body? We are going to follow it as it goes through each stage of detox.

* What are some effective foods, nutrients, supplements, and beverages that support detox every day, all year long?

* Everyone will leave with some tasty recipes that support detox 24/7.

This workshop is open to both Sunstone members and non-members. The cost for everyone is $30 each.

All that is required is a curiosity to learn more about the human body and a desire to support its optimal function. No yoga experience is required and the class will be perfect for beginners as well as for those that have been practicing for a while.

Please reach out to me or Robin if you have any questions. I hope to see you all there! 😀
